I am a long-time CSM attendee since 1985.....the logistics in Chicago were so challenging and created so much negative energy that I doubt I would return there for another CSM. I had the idea that a city as big as Chicago would have handled much larger groups than ours in the past and that shuttle service in particular would have been very smooth. Also, I was astonished that the Palmer House had no in-room coffee and no free internet. Overall not impressed with my week for CSM 2012.

Although the transportation from the hotels was not ideal the conference itself was fantastic. I was very pleased with the lectures and speakers that were presenting for Sports, Ortho, and Private Practice. I felt it was the best overall presenters out of all the CSM conferences that I have attended. I have no regrets.

I very much enjoyed my first CSM. I had no trouble with the shuttle service and the Chicago Hilton was great. I appreciate all of the hard work APTA staff put into this, especially with the higher than expected turn out. I would definately return to Chicago. Thank you!
